Loyal sub for half a decade now. Quick thing to note. Cordless nailers are very young and we are barely on gen 2. You won’t see them come down inside for another 7-10 years. While lithium ion batteries have revolutionized the world. They are not the end all be all of cordless power. I am 27 and I follow the battery tech like a hawk year in and year out. I am excited for the future of cordless tools.
In my cabinet shop a narrow crown stapler is the main go to gun for assembly and counter top construction. I've had 2 of these on pre order from a company along with 2 of there framing guns no idea if or when they are ever going to ship them out ,although I see many RUclipsrs are getting the staple guns recently. I've not been a fan of the dewalt guns because they frequently dont set the staple in melamine and particle bd. so continue to mainly use the pneumatic ones while in the shop . Hurry up Milwaukee!
Great review, you covered all the concerns I might have had, on the way to the hardware store. When will I be able to grab the promised FRAMING NAILER??
Better than coming out before it’s ready, they (Milwaukee) did that with their first pin nailer and it was a disaster. The next one was and is excellent, I’m waiting for the framing nailer too....
Hey Rob... I've been a subscriber for a few years now. Love the content and valuable info. PS I also need a haircut and I always get a high n tight since my Navy days.
I want to reattach the fiber board on the back of a china cabinet. Will it work on that. I tried using my Milwaukee stapler that shoots regular 3/8 staples, and it wouldn't go into the board.
I've got this stapler and the nailer... both great tools! Red just needs to add the 23g pinner now. Although I must say... I have the Ryobi pinner and it works like a champ! Just not red ;)
I bought the worx cordless stapler and it would shut off due to overheating on the 4th to 5th sheet of underlayment. I'll be buying this or the dewalt one. Probably this tho. I have batteries floor either or (yes, I'm that guy). And i want that cordless mafell kss40 cause it's perfect for plank flooring and cutting doors with the kit that it comes in
Peter Shmanka .. I hope so too I would buy one too and if I would do more internal finishing work i would also buy the 18ga Brad nailer. And I also just bought this stapler few weeks ago now I’m still waiting for the framing gun .. can’t wait for this toy
How does it compare to Dewalt's cordless stapler? I already have many Dewalt tools (and batteries) and I like having everything use the same type of battery.
Well this was good timing. Just shot myself through the thumb with my dodgy old $25 air stapler, bounces around and just keeps firing at a hair trigger. Better than the two staples I put through my groin crawling around under a ski lodge with it last year. Think I'll take a closer look at the red beast. Great channel. Cheers from Australia! PP
@@ConcordCarpenter Yeah mate, thanks. My own silly fault. Cheap crappy tools really aren't worth the pain! :-) Have used your site to choose a few tools lately. Appreciate the effort you go to. Hope the lockdown is working over your way. Things pretty good here, restrictions should start easing next week. Good luck with it all & thanks for the entertainment. Very welcome. Cheers PP
Great video! Thank you for testing and explaining what it can be used for. Great video for DIYers who just needed that extra info and visuals to know what they need for their home improvements/weekend hobbies 👍🏾👍🏾
My question is three four weeks down the road using this and it starts to get dirty and you gota take it apart and clean/ service the gun. How much work is to do that like the rest of the battery operated guns.
I had to remove these staples that were driven trhu a window flange to hold the window in the house. What a pain. But because it was such a pain to get these staples out meant they had true holding power. As usual, now I have to buy another red tool. Stay safe out there, It IS a dangerous world.
I got the porter cable model amd it works flawlessly, I got this and both the 16g and 18g nailers 4 2amp batteries and 2 chargers for 220 dollars brand new
You scored big time! I got 2 of the 18ga staple guns for $21 each on clearance. Sadly the gun kits that also included a battery and charger for $50 were already sold out
@@berryreading4809 You got good deal too you can't find them in the store's you can get on line but refurbished, the craftsman is exactly the same I think the batteries are the same
Alright Rob I’m curious. Just received my m18 crown stapler today. First thing I noticed was there is a huge difference between the trigger of the m18 crown stapler to compared to the m18 brad nailer. Did you notice anything like that? Curious as to if I received a lemon
Does anyone know if this will be good for stapling low voltage wires. I’m a low voltage technician and stapling wires all day gets tiring on your hands using a regular t25 or t18 stapler.
Thats a bit pricey for a piece of gear that only does staples. Of course it is Milwaukee so it will last a couple lifetimes but its a bit too expensive for most people's needs in my opinion. Pro maybe but even then a pro may buy a Paslode and get two or three of those to ONE Milwaukee especially since is only staples. Great to have cordless when you're on a roof and a hose is a real pain. This is a great tool but a bit extravagant .
1st they make a crown t50 stapler that looks identical to the ryobi version , NOW they make a narrow crown thats very similar to the ryobi version again (except its brushless). we gotta get someone to strip both staplers and compare the insides,
I have the Ryobi narrow crown stapler and I love it... although it isn't as fast as the Milwaukee in between shots... and at least from a visionary standpoint the Ryobi looks to be more bulky.... but no matter what the Ryobi is still a good performer.... it has two settings as far as driving depth of The staple... it has an adjustment for the tip itself and a air adjustment or regulator turn dial on the back....I am tempted to try this out though.... and actually my Ryobi is better in the sense that it has two LED lights right up by the tip on either side.... it also has a switch to adjust either single shot or bump fire
I love milwaukee tools. But I don't like the way the staples are loaded into this gun. Metabo has a better system on their air staple gun. But it is air. Hopefully milwaukee will change their design.
Umm if it does required a gas cartridge then it is using compressed air. Granted air is mostly nitrogen but it is just marketing lingo to say it is running on nitrogen. TTI developed this technology of a motor with a huge gear reduction powering a piston inside of a cylinder design years ago. I Think they tested it first in ryobi. This is just the latest with improvements in fire rate.
Great rundown of the sealed compressed nitrogen operation! This completely eliminates the cost of gas cartridges and maintenance.
Where are the framing nailers?
Yea! You also need a micro pinner!! M12 or M18 I don't care!
I literally almost bought this stapler this morning. Decided to wait as I was not sure if I truly needed. Love this review
What tool is not truly needed?
Great review, I didn't know a crown stapler could be used for so many applications. You make me want to get one now!

WOW - you and I go way back!! Thanks for the support!!!
The light was an AWESOME feature when installing trim in a closet👍👍
I really appreciate these videos. You have the best tool reviews on the tube. Thank you.

Great no BS review as usual thanks Rob
Thanks Rob for the timely and informative review... As usual A+!! 👍
Thanks for the review Rob I actually prefer a crown stapler to hang t&g pine prob going to be picking up one of these soon
Great review, you covered all the concerns I might have had, on the way to the hardware store. When will I be able to grab the promised FRAMING NAILER??
gabriel back, seriously. They keep pushing the release back.
Better than coming out before it’s ready, they (Milwaukee) did that with their first pin nailer and it was a disaster. The next one was and is excellent, I’m waiting for the framing nailer too....

Thanks for the support
So if you were to buy one size nailer or stapler but it had to be good for trim, kitchen cabs and home projects….you’d go with 18gauge stapler?
This video answered all my questions
Only 1400 staples a year? I install 10,000-20,000 staples daily. I do work in poorly lit areas and the light is a must have. What's the duty cycle?
I want to reattach the fiber board on the back of a china cabinet. Will it work on that. I tried using my Milwaukee stapler that shoots regular 3/8 staples, and it wouldn't go into the board.

Great for working with leather or thicker vinyl upholstery as well as installing fiberglass insulation not just trim.

Awesome Review! Hopefully Milwaukee comes out with a new 15 ga with this Nitrogen Technology!
Peter Shmanka .. I hope so too I would buy one too and if I would do more internal finishing work i would also buy the 18ga Brad nailer. And I also just bought this stapler few weeks ago now I’m still waiting for the framing gun .. can’t wait for this toy
They already made one and it’s really excellent, I have the 18 gauge and the 15 gauge, never bring out the compressor anymore
How does it compare to Dewalt's cordless stapler? I already have many Dewalt tools (and batteries) and I like having everything use the same type of battery.
Stay with Dewalt if your invested in that platform
Very Cool battery operated Crown Stapler from Milwaukee tools !!!!!!!!!!!!

Why won’t Milwaukee make a 23g pinner? Marital and Metabo are the only brands (I think) that make 18 & 23 cordless.

Hi Robert can ask Dewalt need more Bluetooth tool connect for flex volt and and XR tool too.
Rob, Great review! Could you tell me the model of the Bostitch Pneumatic Staple gun that you have? Thanks.
i’ll look it up

Alright Rob I’m curious. Just received my m18 crown stapler today. First thing I noticed was there is a huge difference between the trigger of the m18 crown stapler to compared to the m18 brad nailer. Did you notice anything like that? Curious as to if I received a lemon
I have not
Can you please do the 12 volt. Your review.of the 18 is so thorough I would like a comparison edit: I see you did already!
Does anyone know if this will be good for stapling low voltage wires. I’m a low voltage technician and stapling wires all day gets tiring on your hands using a regular t25 or t18 stapler.
great review! thank you!
What a shoe for engineered hardwood
Nice Vid!
Good review 😊
Rob, get a women to cut that hair. I’ve learned to rely on staples for our finish jobs. Glue and staples and skip the screws. Good review.

Do the pros use crown staples for installing house wrap?
Don’t think so- we use a cordless stapler
1st they make a crown t50 stapler that looks identical to the ryobi version , NOW they make a narrow crown thats very similar to the ryobi version again (except its brushless). we gotta get someone to strip both staplers and compare the insides,
Talk to AVE.
Can you use round crown staples for wire mesh fencing?
No
Thanks for the review. If you’re open to a request for a head to head - consider portable miter saw stands.
Can it use 1/2 inch long staples?
Thank you! Love the channel!
Any word on a M18 Fuel 23GA Nailer?
Still waiting for the framing guns....

Looks like they're gonna use the same Gen2 platform for multiple tools.
How does it compare to the M12 version?
Right, why not have attachments! Same tool!
The m12 is a t50 stapler for fabric.
Tks brou Ism from Medford ma
Hey what's the max depth it'll drive a staple jw
Not sure
love your videos but I cant stay home :-( I cant pay the bills if I stay home hehe and the gov isn't giving me anything to help me either grr
The kind of tool that's a ridiculous waste of money for the average person but for some it may be a good investment.
